Meet Snowy!! A15094025

Female

6 month old

Philly ACCT says: She is an adorable, excitable petite 6 month old puppy who was found running the streets and nearly got herself hit by a car!! Snowy’s name comes from her brilliant white coat, which could be even brighter with your help! Snowy has come down with some demodetic mange, a non-contagious skin condition that is treatable with meds that we can provide for you. Please don’t delay—make your winter a little “Snowy!” Snowy recently went to an event and these are notes from her handler:

She rode very well in the car, curled up and almost instantly fell asleep. She loved everyone who came up to her, was a little mouthy like all puppies but has a very soft mouth. She loved to cuddle and thinks she’s a lap dog. She’s very smart and picked up “sit” very quickly. She walked pretty well on the leash considering she’s just a puppy. She didn’t heel or anything but she didn’t pull excessively or lunge except when she wanted to play with other dogs that were close to her. She was friendly to all the dogs she met and even tolerated Jamz waking her up by licking her face!

If you’ve ever seen my pictures of Rose and heard my stories of her boundless happiness and energy and found yourself jealous, then this puppy might be the puppy for you!!! I am reminded of the time I met Rose when the idea of an “excitable puppy” frightened me into not bringing her into my home, but I did. Instead, every day I am gifted with her adoring face, happy tail wags, and a love I couldn’t have imagined…and everyone who meets her is gifted with her constant tongue…affectionately known as “The Licker”. I don’t think you could do wrong with a pup like Snowy.
